Honda CB650R E-Clutch 2024

Honda CB650R E-Clutch 2024

The Honda CB650R is a great mid-range naked bike for the country road that manages the balancing act between sporty charm and everyday accessibility very well. The Honda CB650R E-Clutch stands out with its unique four-cylinder engine and the innovative E-Clutch, which make the riding experience both more comfortable and sportier.

Screeching, "old-school" in-line four-cylinder that tempts you to wind out a gear

stable, but not overly hard fork

well-tuned brakes

sporty, but not too extreme ergonomics

great E-Clutch system

beautiful TFT display with intuitive operating concept

E-Clutch enables fast shifting without loss of power

comfortable and balanced suspension

good accessibility and user-friendliness typical for Honda.

Shock could be more stable when leaning

higher weight compared to competitors

noticeable vibrations at high revs

time needed to get used to the E-Clutch

non-adjustable front fork.

Yamaha MT-09 SP 2018

Yamaha MT-09 SP 2018

The Yamaha MT-09 SP is the refinement of an already very good mid-range naked bike. With better suspension components from Öhlins and Kayaba, a nicer paint job and a justifiably higher price, the SP version is clearly the sportiest choice within the Yamaha MT-09 range. The brute power of the engine does not allow the MT-09 SP to be ridden comfortably, but that is not necessary on the "Special" - the fun is clearly in the foreground! The Yamaha MT-09 EVO with Wilbers suspension is now available as an interesting alternative, because it has no "war paint" and is very discreet. But unfortunately only for Switzerland...

incredibly powerful three-cylinder engine

good brakes

sporty and comfortable seating position

ABS

traction control

shift assistant

high saddle

shift assistant only for upshifting

instruments do not stand out strongly from the basic version
